SUMMARY:Album launch - Eoghan Neff “Unrecalled”
DESCRIPTION:Album launch!\nEoghan Neff\n“Unrecalled”\nFriday 12th Nov. 2021 @ 8pm\nThe Queens hotel\, Ennis\, Co. Clare\nFree entry\, all ages welcome! \n**************************** \nEoghan Neff’s “extreme fiddling” (Folk World) “traces shadows where few fiddlers deign venture” (Irish Times). Mastering an impossibly broad palette of sounds on his acoustically prepared instrument\, his virtuosic live-looping experiments are heard on various feature films (by Oscar-winning and Cannes-winning directors)\, television series (as soundtrack and theme music)\, independent screen productions (from documentaries to animation)\, and 20+ albums (from experimental fusion to free improvisation). He has toured as a featured soloist on diverse stages from secluded Scandinavian clubs (Torrek) and Mediterranean cafés (Assembly Point) to packed-out European arenas (Riverdance) and major international festivals (Anxo Lorenzo Band). \nVisit www.EoghanNeff.com \nEoghan Neff’s second solo album\, ‘unrecalled’\, presents a series of alternative duets with fellow radical sonic explorers from Iceland\, Spain and Ireland: LAR Legido (prepared drums & found percussion)\, Seán Mac Erlaine (adapted car hooter)\, Germán Díaz (zanfona)\, Caoimhe Doyle (foley)\, Anxo Lorenzo (gaita galega)\, Atli Örvarsson (una corda) and Sean Carpio (drums & spring tank).\nConceived as an art-box album\, ‘unrecalled’ is a dialogue about our relationship with memory told through musical interaction with archival photographs\, documentary film\, contemporary mixed-media on canvas\, original illustrations\, and a variety of phrasal artforms. “A true Irish devil violinist” (Sächsische Zeitung)\, “demonic and stunning” (IOM Today)\, “if he has sold his soul to the devil to play as he does\, he has definitely got the better part of the deal!” (Fatea Magazine).

SUMMARY:Album launch - Good morning to your nightcap “Stirred and waked anew”
DESCRIPTION:Album launch!\nGood morning to your nightcap\n“Stirred and waked anew”\nSaturday 13th November 2021 @ 1pm.\nThe Queens Hotel\, Ennis\, Co. Clare.\nFree entry\, all ages welcome! \n************************ \nGood Morning to Your Nightcap – “Stirred And Waked Anew” \n  \n‘Stirred And Waked Anew’ follows Good Morning to Your Nightcap’s eponymous recording released in 2015. This album is a collection of music reflecting the musicians’ personal influences featuring tunes and airs from Ireland\, with forays into the music of Shetland\, Denmark and Austurias. Tracy O’Donnell guests on the album providing stunning vocals on the songs ‘The County Tyrone’ and ‘An Bonnán Buí’; indeed\, the album owes its title to a line from An Bonnán Buí. As Desy\, Ruadhrai\, Ryan and Paul were brought together musically in the shadow of Cavehill\, in North Belfast\, it is entirely fitting that Cavehill’s familiar outline features prominently on the album cover welcoming in a brand-new dawn. \n  \nMusicians:\nDesy Adams (flute) was born and bred in Belfast\, Co Antrim and is a fine exponent of the Northern style of flute playing. Desy started playing tin whistle in the 1980s before moving onto the flute. He spent time living in Denmark and Galway before returning to Belfast in the early 2000s. Desy played with traditional group Na Dorsa with whom he recorded a CD in the late 1990s and has also featured on the Wooden Flute Obsession CD. Desy has toured and played at many festivals throughout Europe and America.\nRuadhrai O’Kane (fiddle / viola) comes from Dungiven\, Co Derry and has lived in Belfast since going to university in 1995. Ruadhrai played fiddle with the traditional music group Óige for around 10 years up to 2001 recording 3 albums and touring extensively throughout Ireland\, UK\, Europe and beyond. More recently Ruadhrai enjoys playing in sessions\, teaching fiddle workshops\, and has appeared at various European festivals. \n  \nRyan O’Donnell (banjo / bouzouki / guitar) hails from Omagh\, Co Tyrone and has been accompanying traditional music since the age of 11 on guitar\, piano and bouzouki. Ryan is a much sought-after accompanist with a style noted for providing a steady and musical foundation behind the tune. He is also a fine banjo player and features on several tracks on this recording. Ryan performs at sessions and festivals throughout Ireland and has appeared on over 10 recordings in the last 15 years. \n  \nPaul Maguire (bodhran) is a Belfast native who is well known within traditional music circles. Now retired\, Paul spent several years in his youth traveling the high seas exploring faraway lands which developed his appreciation for music and culture. Paul has played the bodhran for over 35 years and is a veteran of many fleadhs and festivals. Paul has a very distinctive\, unique playing style and has developed an equally unique knack for staying up late\, so he doesn’t miss a trick! \n  \nGuest Musician:\nTracy O’Donnell (nee Ryan) (vocals) comes from Newport\, Co Tipperary and began learning music at the age of 10 with well-respected female musician of Co Limerick\, Peg Ryan. Tracy has taught flute and whistle in her local area for many years and returned to full time education in 2010 completing a B.A. in Irish Traditional Music & Dance at the University of Limerick. Tracy has travelled to Europe and America over the years with various groups and has recorded on several recordings including Denis Carey’s ‘Newport Town’ and on Stevie Dunne’s ‘Banjo’ album.
